Wicked Monsters Blast their way onto Nintendo Wii this
February! – an exciting Wii shooting game for all the
family

UK video games publisher/distributor PQube today announced
the imminent release of
Wicked Monsters Blast , a
fun, family friendly, action shooting game for up to 4
players.

Wicked Monster Blast is one of the few shooting games on the
Nintendo Wii which is suitable for the whole family– you play
as the characters of the “Wicked Monster” series and
shoot it out with cartoon style animals, aliens and monsters, all
set in a brightly coloured cartoon environment.

Using the Wii remote players blast enemies and solve puzzles
across 20 challenges and 12 mini games – all of this is set
in a family friendly environment.

Wicked Monsters Blast has 3 unique game modes, Arcade, Family
and Survival mode delivering extensive replay value and is a
guaranteed favourite in party atmospheres.

Gameplay is fast paced and non-stop – each stage poses a
unique challenge and you must combine skill with intensity in order
to progress through each stage.

Early reviews have been glowing, with N4G saying “
definitely worth playing” and giving it
4/5 with specialist family game publication
GamerDad citing “
kids will love the crazy characters and
mini-games”.

Andy Pearson, Marketing Manager at PQube Ltd
commented:

“The first thing which sprang to mind when we signed this
title was ‘Point Blank’ – without a doubt the
best shooting game I have played... until now! Wicked Monsters
Blast operates in that same realm of fast paced action shooting
without relying on gruesome monsters/zombies that a lot of other
shooters do, this game is family friendly fun!”

Corecell commented:

“The title jumped out at us and we didn’t hesitate
to publish it – the focus on a family fun environment was
paramount to us. There are a wide range of shooting games on the
market but the range available for families and younger children is
almost non-existent”

20 action-packed missions each with their
own unique theme. Keep your students awake in Lazy Brain Attack,
keep the hippos hungry in No Mercy for Hippos, and defeat Colonel
Eureka in Desert Striker and many more!

12 mini games - Shoot rocks to create
sculptures, defend from a barrage of missile attacks, solve simple
equations, match pictures, prevent hungry hippos from eating all of
the food, serve dinner to a whale, break bottles and many
more!

4-Player Multiplayer! - arcade-style
multiplayer gameplay for up to four players. Players cooperate to
get past challenges while still competing for the highest
score.

Arcade Mode: select a crazy character and
follow their story.

Family Mode: select from any of the
mini-games you’ve unlocked to play separately.

Survival mode: shoot your way through as many
rounds in the random games as you can.

Use power-ups by pressing the A button to
help boost your score or hinder other players.
